Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 11 months and 1 day old | 43 lbs
My dog had fleas and now she has this hair loss all over her back , the area I live fleas for us are kinda inevitable no matter what. We're constantly buying new flea stuff from the vet and stores . But nothing fully helps . But is there a way I can help her hair grow back quicker ? It's taking forever and I feel like everyone walks away from her cause she has this and thinks she's gross but she's to friendly not to go up and wanna play.

Unfortunately as long as Bella is suffering from flea infestation the hair is not likely to grow back, after the flea problem is solved the fur should grow back fairly quickly, usually 2-4 weeks depending on the skin damage underneath. here is the list of the best flea products on the market. Spot ons: Revoulution Advantage Advantage Multi Frontline (ticks as well) Tablets: Trifexis/comfortis Bravecto (ticks as well) - for dogs Collar: Seresto ( (ticks as well) House spary: Indoorex I have found that in areas with very resistant fleas Comfortis works best and you can combine it with a Seresto collar for extra protection.
